Wow. This book was everything. Sawyer and Enzo are perfectly imperfect for each other, and their stories and backgrounds were both equally heart-wrenching. Their time together in the lighthouse was trying, yet in the end brought them closer than anything else could’ve. I could’ve easily read another 300 pages! The spice was 5/5 🌶️ for sure, with an alpha MMC that you love to hate. I couldn’t get enough!

I LOVED this book! There were plot twists I didn’t expect and yet it made me love it even more. It was dark but hopeful, tense but had light scenes. I loved the water aspect and how everything ended up threading together! Go read it! Check TW!

The spicy scenes are fairly spicy but the darkness of the romance motivates the hero to do something pretty unforgivable at the beginning and I'm not sure he's really forgivable by the end. The non-spice plot also takes an icky turn in the last quarter. I guess it was actually a little too dark for me.
